Barcelona [Special Edition] , what can i say sounds incredible ............25 years after the original release of the lead single, Queen singer Freddie Mercury’s album recorded in collaboration with Spanish operatic soprano Montserrat Caballé, Barcelona, has been given a special re-release in an entirely newly orchestrated re-working.

It does sound great with the orchestral backing.I can't believe I've now bought this album 5 times in one way or another.The 1988 original vinyl,the 1992 CD issue,The Solo album 2000,the Solo 10cd 2 dvd boxset and now the new orchestra version.Some of Freddie's greatest ever vocal performances are on this album,he really poured his heart and soul into it.

Unfortunately just now I played Paul Anka's sh*t version of My Way. The guy struggled for the most part with it.

What an amazing voice. Listening to Mario Lanza now:

Re: What Are You Listening To ?

There was a red-back on the toilet seatWhen I was there last night,I didn’t see him in the dark,But boy! I felt his bite!I jumped high up into the air,And when I hit the ground,That crafty red-back spiderWasn’t nowhere to be found.

I rushed in to the missus,Told her just where I’d been bit,She grabbed the cut throat razor blade,And I nearly took a fit.I said, “Just forget what’s on your mind,And call a doctor please,‘Cause I’ve got a feeling that your cureIs worse than the disease.”

There was a red-back on the toilet seatWhen I was there last night,I didn’t see him in the dark,But boy! I felt his bite!And now I’m here in hospital,A sad and sorry plight,And I curse that red-back spiderOn the toilet seat last night.

I can’t lay down, I can’t sit up,Find more similar lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.com/qhuwAnd I don’t know what to do,And all the nurses think it’s funny,But that’s not my point of view.I tell you it’s embarrassing,And that’s to say the leastThat I’m too sick to eat a bite,While that spider had a feast!

And when I get back home again,I tell you what I’ll do,I’ll make that red-back sufferFor the pain I’m going through.I’ve had so many needlesThat I’m looking like a sieve,And I promise you that spiderHasn’t very long to live!

There was a red-back on the toilet seatWhen I was there last night,I didn’t see him in the dark,But boy! I felt his bite!And now I’m here in hospital,A sad and sorry plight,And I curse that red-back spiderOn the toilet seat last night.

She's a genius. Great artist which deserves more recognizement worldwide (she's been around since the 80's and is well respected in her country).

I reckon that it's not for everyone's tastes, but definitely a great, inspiring artist. I had the luck of finding the LP for a cheap price (it usually costs more, even the CD does). Definitely recommended!

That's for sure. After only 2 albums, she has already established herself as one of the great female vocalists.

BTW I am currently listening to the awesome Guns n Roses album "Appetite For Destruction". I have great memories of getting this on vinyl when it was originally released.

Super Furry Animals - Songbook.

Man, some crazy-cool sh*t!

Bought this cd when it came out 8 years ago and this is the first time I've played it!

Don't you just love it when you discover a brilliant artist or band for the first time?
